Seahawks signed USC RB Tre Madden.

Madden (6'0/223) arrived at USC as a four-star recruit but couldn't get off the shelf, missing time with turf toe, hamstring, and knee injuries and playing in only 20 college games. He finished his career with 1,155 yards and eight TDs on 223 carries (5.18 YPC), adding 32 receptions. Healthy for the Trojans' Pro Day, Madden ran 4.56 with a 10-foot broad jump and 33 1/2-inch vertical. Madden has adequate athleticism, but lacks NFL-level production and durability. Ultimately a replacement-level back, Madden is essentially Vick Ballard 2.0. Wed, May 4, 2016 03:12:00 PM

USC RB Tre Madden (knee) indicated that he was back to full health for USC's Pro Day on Wednesday.

"[Teams] ask about the injuries. But I’m trying to show them my athleticism and how fresh I feel," Madden said. It's at least somewhat remarkable that the 6-foot, 217-pounder has already recovered from the knee surgery he underwent at the close of the 2015 season. During Wednesday's Pro Day, he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.60 and 4.61 seconds, with a 20-yard shuttle sprint of 4.27 seconds and a three-cone drill dance of 7.09 seconds. In addition to those running feats, he also logged a 33.5-inch vertical jump and an even 10 feet on the broad jump. Even beyond the recent knee surgery, injuries have been a major concern for Madden throughout his career. A knee injury sidelined him in 2012 and a turf toe injury did likewise in 2014. This is a large part of the reason he received just 223 total carries with the Trojans during his sometime-interrupted career. Sat, Mar 26, 2016 01:59:00 PM

Madden missed four games down the stretch with his knee ailment. While he played in USC's last two games, he received just eight carries combined across those two contests. Following the close of the regular season, he underwent knee surgery. HC Clay Helton's ruled him out for the team's Holiday Bowl match-up against Wisconsin on December 30. With the 6-foot-1, 225-pound redshirt senior down for the count, freshman RB Ronald Jones figures to see most of the carries versus the Badgers. Sat, Dec 19, 2015 06:04:00 PM

Madden is still feeling soreness in his knee, so the Trojans have decided to give him the week off. "We decided we’re going to rest him this week, reevaluate next week and it may be a couple-week thing," HC Clay Helton said. "We’ll have to see, but at this point in time, we want to get him back 100% healthy." Madden played through the bone bruise in his knee the past few weeks, but he didn't look very good in last week’s victory against Arizona. The 6-foot-1, 225-pound redshirt senior has 418 yards and five touchdowns this year. Wed, Nov 11, 2015 06:40:00 PM
